Harley Quinn sat upon the corner of Joker's desk, her blonde locks held back from her face in pig tails. Joker was busy counting out bills from a recent heist. With Batsy on a "vacation" of sorts, he'd been able to get away with crime with ease.
"280, 290, 300... Babes?" He kept counting out bills in his head as he glanced at Harley. Her head snapped up.
"Yeah, Mistah J?" Harley hadn't been herself the past few days. She was no where near as bubbly and, well to be frank, annoying as usual. It had the Joker.. Oh. What's the word? Worried. Yep. That's it.
It had Joker worried about his ever loving and loyal Harley. Although the girl got on his nerves, she'd been so down in the dumps lately that he didn't even have the heart to beat her like he usually did.
"Harley, dear. Are you feeling alright?" Joker set the bills aside for the time being and leaned in on his elbows to look at her. Her blue eyes seemed unfocused and dull. The usual light in her eyes was gone. Harley nodded and faked a smile.
"Of course I'm alright, Puddin'. Why wouldn't I be?" She grinned a Harley grin but he was still unsatisfied and scowled at her as he leaned back in his chair, his arms behind his head.
"Go on to bed Harley dearest. I'll finish up here." He turned the chair around and faced the wall, chewig his lower lip in thought.
"Right.. Good night, Puddin'." With a sigh, Harley slid off his desk and shuffled off towards her bedroom. Joker then spun his chair back around as she shut the door to his office.
Something is definitely wrong with that girl. But, what? The Joker thought to himself. He finished counting out the money and put it away in his desk drawer, a yawn escaping his lips.
"Damn." He said, the clock on the wall saying 1:23 a.m. "I guess it's time for bed.." And with that, he slipped out of his office and made his way to his room.
As he clambered up the stairs, he heard a faint noise coming from Harley's room...
